from Oannes *

Η άρια ‘Mon coeur s’ouvre a ta voix’ [η Δαλιδά προσπαθεί να αποπλανήσει τον Σαμψών για να της αποκαλύψει το μυστικό της δύναμής του]. Από την όπερα του Saint-Saëns Samson et Dalila. Την ακούμε από τη Maria Callas, γεννημένη αυτό το μήνα πριν από 100 ακριβώς χρόνια.

✻

The aria ‘Mon coeur s’ouvre a ta voix’ [Delilah tries to seduce Samson to reveal to her the secret of his power]. From Saint-Saëns’s opera ‘Samson et Dalila‘. We hear it from Maria Callas, born this month, exactly 100 years ago.

As always, I’m happy to hear your thoughts, however I’d highly recommend a direct dialogue with the …’source’ [why comments are closed here], so please visit Oannes’ page where you can also listen to the music!

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
